E-bike recalls and safety warnings: check your model

Sources checked October 30, 2026. Use the official links for current photographs, eligibility and instructions. For older or unlisted products, search CPSC recalls and Canada’s recalls and safety alerts as well.

Match the product before choosing an action

1. Record the full bike model and model year from its label or purchase record.
2. For a battery notice, compare the battery’s own model number, not only the bicycle brand or voltage. Use the agency’s label photographs.
3. Match any serial range, sale date or component condition. If uncertain, stop using a product you suspect is affected and ask the named recall contact to confirm.
4. Read the notice for your country, including update banners. An original remedy can become unavailable.

Recall and safety warning are different labels. The tables preserve the agency’s description. A warning is still a reason to follow its safety direction; it does not guarantee a repair or refund. Canadian notices can also be informational communications of a manufacturer action, as noted below.

To find a name or code quickly, use your browser’s Find function and search the exact model or battery number.

CPSC safety warnings

These five entries are warnings on the checked pages. FENGQS’s earlier warning is handled with its later recall rather than counted as another unresolved entry.

Call the local household hazardous-waste service before taking an affected lithium battery there. The CPSC battery notices say not to put these batteries in trash, curbside recycling or ordinary used-battery collection boxes. Ask whether the facility accepts the specific defective or recalled battery and follow its directions. A refund registration may require photographs or disposal confirmation; read the sequence first.

Selected CPSC recalls, 2023–2026

Dates below are notice dates, not model years. Use the linked notice for the complete eligibility description. The action column summarizes the published process; it is not confirmation that parts, service or a refund are currently available.

FENGQS changed from warning to recall. The June 18, 2025 warning 25-349 now points owners to the July 24 recall and refund process. Match the recall’s battery-production label rather than treating the old warning and the later recall as two unrelated products.

Canadian product notices

A US notice is not proof of an identical Canadian remedy. Check the Canadian notice and its contact.

Health Canada says the Norco and Giant notices below are informational communications, not actions conducted under the Motor Vehicle Safety Act or Canada Consumer Product Safety Act. Babboe is listed as a consumer product recall.

Health Canada’s May 11, 2023 battery advisory, RA-73653, is general safety guidance, not a product recall. It warns against modifying or building lithium-ion batteries, recommends original manufacturer replacements and directs owners to their municipality for disposal instructions.

Keep an action record

This worksheet helps a dealer or recall contact identify the product without repeating the search. Keep your serial number and receipt private; send them through the contact method in the official notice.

Download a blank recall action record (CSV) to fill in locally, or use the fields below.

Keep documentation of a completed remedy. A familiar model name, a changed component colour or the absence of symptoms does not by itself document that this particular product completed the applicable recall process.

Scope and checking method

We rechecked the linked government notices on October 30, 2026. The selected US recall numbers were also cross-checked against CPSC’s recall data on October 30; current notice text and update banners take priority over older data fields. This page covers selected road-going e-bike and battery actions issued from 2023 through the check date. It excludes exercise bikes, scooters and general bicycle accessories. It does not cover every country, every action or older notices.

The official notice remains the place to check photographs, complete serial/model lists, remedies and subsequent updates. Monthly upkeep is planned; the check date records a source review, not an always-live monitoring feed. We have not tested these products or verified individual remedy claims with owners.

Frequently asked questions

Is my e-bike safe if it is not listed?

This selected lookup cannot establish that. Search the official databases for your exact product, including older notices, and check the manufacturer’s current safety notices.

Did the FENGQS warning become a recall?

Yes. CPSC’s June 18, 2025 warning now links to the July 24, 2025 recall. Check that recall’s battery label and refund instructions.

Can I still claim the original Babboe refund?

Do not assume the original offer is available. CPSC now flags bankruptcy, and Health Canada says the remedy is no longer available. Read the current notice for your country.
